FAQs
What is the temperature rating of the Isla jacket?
The Isla jacket is tested for thermal performance down to an impressive -35°C.
Is the jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket is water-resistant, which means it can handle light rain or snow. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.
How should I wash the jacket?
It is recommended to wash the jacket on a gentle cycle at 30°C, using a specialized down wash detergent if possible. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Always ensure it is completely dry afterwards.
Can I tumble dry the jacket?
Yes, it is recommended to tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting. Adding dryer balls can help restore the down's loft.
Does the hood detach?
The product description mentions an adjustable hood, but does not specify if it is detachable. Please refer to the product's specific tag or packaging for confirmation.
What does 'down-proof lining' mean?
A down-proof lining is a tightly woven fabric designed to prevent the fine down feathers from leaking out of the jacket's shell.
Are there other colors or sizes available?
Yes, the Isla jacket is available in various colors and sizes. Please check the product listing for available options.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less warm than expected.
Ensure the down filling is evenly distributed. If the jacket has been compressed for storage, give it a good shake to restore loft. Check that all zippers and closures are fully sealed to prevent drafts.
Down feathers are escaping from the jacket.
This may indicate a breach in the down-proof lining. For minor occurrences, try to pull the feather back through. If persistent, contact customer support as the lining may be compromised.
Jacket has an odor after washing.
This can sometimes happen with down-filled items if not dried thoroughly. Ensure the jacket is completely dry, ideally using a tumble dryer on a low setting with dryer balls. If the odor persists, re-wash with a specialized down wash and ensure complete drying.
Faux fur trim appears matted.
Once the jacket is completely dry, gently brush the faux fur trim with a soft brush to restore its texture. Avoid excessive heat, which can damage synthetic fibers.
